Although the cleaning trends that social media has recently focused on can sometimes work, they can sometimes cause unexpected harm.Especially unconscious detergent cocktails prepared to clean toilets, shower cabins, showers and sinks can deprive you of your health or even your life."Some of these videos consist of heavily mixed product combinations that collapse easily, clog pipes and cause clogs," said Carolyn Forté, executive director of the Home Care and Cleaning Lab.Even if you wash or rinse them thoroughly, mixing cleaners together and sending them down the drain can damage your sink, tub or toilet, she warned.Also, mixing your products together doesn't make them more effective.In fact, some products neutralize each other, so when you "overload" you're really wasting money."Cleaning products are best used as directed on the label and are not formulated to work with other cleaning products," Forté explains.she said.Even using a larger "dosage" of cleaner than indicated on the label can render it ineffective.Because products are formulated for specific scenarios, using them in higher concentrations can also abrade or scratch surfaces.Copyright © MYNET A.Ş.Copyrights belong to MYNET A.Ş.
